Event Organiser Stripe Gateway

Sell tickets without users ever leaving your site.

This Stripe gateway add-on allows you to accept credit card payments for events without the customer ever leaving your site. If you offer multiple gateways the credit card form appears when the gateway is selected. The credit card form, as with the rest of the booking form can be completely tailored to your site and needs, resulting in a more seamless experience for your users, and an increase in sales.

You can get set up with Stripe in minutes. Once you’ve activated this plug-in, simply enter your API credentials for the Stripe gateway in Settings > Event Organiser > Bookings.

How Do I Get My API credentials

To get started with stripe you’ll need your public (aka publishable) and private key. If you want to test the gateway in sandbox mode, you’ll have a separate sandbox public and private keys.

These can all be found by logging into your Stripe account. In the top right click ‘Your Account’ and then ‘Account Settings’. A settings modal shall appear. Click the ‘API keys’ tab.

You’ll be present with your live and sandbox public & private keys:

Do I need an SSL Certificate?

Yes, in order to process transactions in a secure manner you will need to purchase an SSL Certificate. Contact your host about getting one installed. Once installed there are multiple plugins that allow you to enforce that SSL be used on any relevant pages.

In this case, any page on which a booking form appears.

You do not need it one while using the gateway in sandbox mode.

Do I need to ensure I’m PCI compliant?

By the way Stripe works, it avoids any requirements on your servers. As such, you only need an SSL Certificate to use this plug-in and be fully PCI compliant.
